That's the worst T-Mobile Tuesday ever ;_;

Lol on their page. They got names, SS#, DOB, but it's ok folks! They didn't get any bank/credit or online account info. Trying to downplay the severity and bold the stuff that wasn't breached.

Will they replace these silly human forms of ID someday for a less fraud prone system?

There has to be money in it


New Ssn issued every 2 years, can get a new one if fraud is detected. Seems easy.

They should allow you to input your email or phone # to see if you're affected. I used to be with them about 5+ years ago.

I still go through the sprint app to pay. Was Sprint breached as well or just t-mobile?

I always wondered how vulnerable those “are you affected by this breach” systems are.

Fucking this.
Give me a fucking break.
I mean I guess they think we're all that stupid, and when I look out the window...yeahhhhhhh, we're all that stupid...shit...


Maybe their core customer base doesn't have an SSN or credit history?
